Continued Public Hearing — Consideration of a request to amend the Monticello Zoning Ordinance Chapter 5, Section 1, Table 5-1 Uses by District, Chapter 5, Section 2 — Use Specific Standards and Chapter 5, Section 3 — Accessory Use Standards for allowable principal and accessory uses in Commercial/Business zoning districts Applicant: City of Monticello Angela Schumann explained that the Planning Commission had discussed this item at the previous two Planning Commission meetings. At the last meeting, Schumann suggested tabling action to allow time to discuss the proposed amendments to the zoning ordinance with two property owners. Schumann briefly reviewed the proposed amendments to the zoning ordinance, stating that the goals of the amendments were to increase jobs and tax base. One additional amendment was suggested to include offices as a permitted use in the B-3 District. This would allow offices in all business zoning districts. Schumann followed up with Brad Fyle's request, from the previous meeting, for additional information about retail commercial uses. She stated that staff was proposing two categories for uses for retail commercial: under 10,000 square feet and over 10,000 square feet. Under the proposed changes, a conditional use permit would be required for a facility over 10,000 square feet in the B-2 District and permitted in the remaining business zoning districts. Sam Murdoff asked if it needed to be clarified that the square footage applies to building footprint for retail commercial uses. Schumann confirmed that it could be clarified. Katie Peterson asked if the change for self -storage was in response to the recent development of a facility on Chelsea Road. Schumann explained that there has been a lot of inquiries and demand for self -storage facilities and that the City needs to be thoughtful on the location of these facilities. Schumann noted the importance of thinking about outdoor storage, lights, and site circulation particularly if proposed next to residential. By allowing uses conditionally, staff and boards would have time to review the proposals. Brad Fyle opened the public hearing. Hearing no comments, the public hearing was closed. SAM MURDOFF MOVED TO ADOPT RESOLUTION PC -2017-037 RECOMMENDING ADOPTION OF ORDINANCE NO. 6XX FOR AMENDMENT TO MONTICELLO ZONING ORDINANCE CHAPTER 5, SECTION 1, TABLE 5-1 USES BY DISTRICT AND CHAPTER 5, SECTION 2 — USE SPECIFIC STANDARDS AND RELATED SECTIONS AND THE ADDITION TO CLARIFY COMMERCIAL RETAIL USES APPLIES TO BUILDING SIZE.

Angela Schumann stated that staff received a request by the applicant to table action on their application and continue the public hearing to the January Planning Commission Meeting. It is staff's understanding that the applicant is in discussion about their site proposal based on concerns and staff input. Brad Fyle opened the public hearing. Carla and Larry Hunt, owners of Hawk's Sport's Bar, noted their concern for rezoning the property behind their facility. Carla Hunt noted the amount of noise and exterior lighting generated on their site and concerns future residents of the 2 townhomes may have if the development occurred. Hawk's has been established since the 1960's. Larry Hunt noted concerns with the restriction of activities that occur at Hawks due to the proximity of residential.

Applicant: James and Erica Witzmann (AS, JaT) Property: PID 155-114-001060 Address: 9763 River Forest Dr. Planning Case Number: 2018-003 A. REFERENCE & BACKGROUND Request(s): Conditional Use Permit for a detached Accessory Use Structure — Major in an R-1 District Deadline for Decision: January 19th, 2018 Land Use Designation: Places to Live Zoning Designation: R-1 (Single Family Residential) The purpose of the "R-1" single family district is to provide for low density, single family, detached residential dwelling units and directly related complementary uses. Overlays/Environmental Regulations Applicable: NA Current Site Use: Residential Surrounding Land Uses: R-1 (Single Family Residential) Project Description: The applicant is seeking to construct a second garage on the property at 9763 River Forest Drive. The new garage would be detached, and a total of approximately 780 square feet in area. The existing house footprint is a total of 936 square feet with an attached garage of 684 square feet. ANALYSIS Conditional Use Permit. Specific Zoning Requirements. The zoning ordinance lists the following specific standards for these uses (with staff comments included): Planning Commission Agenda — 01/02/2018 (2) Accessory Building — Major (a) In all residential districts except M -H, the following shall apply: (i) Size 1. Except by Conditional Use Permit issued pursuant to Section 5.3(D)(3)(a)(i)(2) below, no detached accessory building shall exceed ten percent (10%) of the rear yard of the parcel on which it is located, nor shall any combination of attached garage and detached accessory building exceed the following maximum area, whichever is less: a. 1,200 square feet; or b. The gross square footage of the principal building footprint. The applicant has proposed an approximately 780 square foot detached accessory building which is well less than 10 percent of the rear yard (approximately 26,000 square feet). The existing attached garage (684 square feet) and the proposed structure (780 square feet) would be a total of 1,464 square feet. The principal building footprint is 936 square feet requiring a Conditional Use Permit for the accessory use structure — major. A detached structure would be permitted use if below 252 square feet. 2. The size limitations for accessory building area listed in Section 5.3(D)(3)(a)(i)(1) above may be increased, up to a maximum square footage of 1,500 square feet, by the issuance of a Conditional Use permit when the following conditions are found to exist: (a) Accessory building space is to be utilized solely for the storage of residential personal property of the occupant of the principal dwelling, and no accessory building space is to be utilized for commercial purposes. The applicant has indicated that the garage would be used for storage of boat and lawn equipment. (b) The parcel on which the accessory building is to be located is of sufficient size such that the building will not crowd the open space on the lot. An aerial image estimation of the rear yard is approximately 26,000 square feet. The proposed project would consume less than 10 percent of the rear yard, open space. (c) The accessory building will not be so large as to have an adverse effect on the architectural character or reasonable residential use of the surrounding property. The applicant has proposed a structure that is less than 10 percent of the rear yard. The combined total of attached and detached accessory structures on the property is approximately 1,464 square feet, under the 1,500 allowable by CUP. The structure will be located behind the rear building line of the principal structure. (d) The accessory buildings shall be constructed to be similar to the principal building in architectural style and building materials. The applicant has proposed to roof and side the structure the same as the house. (ii) Private Garages 1. Private garages shall be used by the family or families residing upon the premises, except as follows: 2 Planning Commission Agenda — 01/02/2018 (a) One-half of the private garage spaces on the premises can be rented to non- residents of the property for private passenger vehicles and/or non- commercial vehicles, trailers, or equipment if sufficient off-street parking in full compliance with this ordinance is provided elsewhere on the property. (b) All of the private garage spaces on the premises can be rented to non-residents of the property for private passenger vehicles and/or non-commercial vehicles, trailers, or equipment if the available garage space does not exceed two spaces. 2. No business, service, or industry shall be carried on within a private garage; 3. Private garages shall not be used for the storage of more than one (1) commercial vehicle owned or operated by a resident per dwelling unit. The applicant has indicated in their narrative that the space would be used for storage of boat and lawn equipment. The proposed detached structure is shown to be setback 6 feet from the interior side yard property line and approximately 56 feet from the rear yard property line. Per the Monticello Zoning Ordinance, the setbacks for accessory structure on the interior side are 6 feet and 6 feet for rear yard setback. The proposed structure meets the setback requirements, although at minimum for side yard. The applicant will be required to verify setbacks by locating and staking property corners or a new certificate of survey for the proposed structure. It is further noted that there is a slope in the rear yard and as such, the Building Official has included a condition that the structure may need to be located forward of the proposed location to avoid any issues related to the slope. The application is subject to the comments of the City Engineer regarding grading and drainage. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS Decision 1. Conditional Use Permit for Accessory Use Structure — Major in an R-1 District 1. Motion to adopt Resolution No. PC 2018-001 recommending approval of the Conditional Use Permit for a proposed approximately 780 square foot structure, subject to the conditions in Exhibit Z, and based on findings in said resolution. 2.

Public Hearing - Consideration of a reauest to amend the Monticello Comprehensive Plan, Chapter 5 - Parks, to include as an appendix item the Sidewalks & Trails Pathway Connection map. (AS) The Planning Commission is asked to review for recommendation a pathway connections map. The map is intended to serve as an implementation guide for pathway system plans included within the current Park & Pathway Plan and Transportation Plan. The plan defines proposed connections in the overall pathway system and serves as a guide for future capital improvements and development. Staff is withdrawing the request for the map to serve as an appendix to the Comprehensive Plan, as amending the document would be a cumbersome process as part of the Comprehensive Plan. Instead, if accepted the map will be an implementation guide for aiding the Planning and Parks Commission in evaluating development requests and park dedication requirements. Planning Commission will note that in Monticello, "pathways" refers to both sidewalks and trails, and may also include on -road pathways in some locations. The map was developed in coordination by the Public Works, Community Development and Engineering departments, with input from the Parks Commission and public engagement activities over the summer of 2017. The goal of the connections map was to prepare a document which responds to Park and Pathway Plan and Transportation Comprehensive Plan objectives, as well as the recent City of Monticello Strategic Plan objectives including: • "Create and Preserve Sustainable Livability: develop Monticello and as walkable and bikeable community — Strategic Plan • "Providing continuity and linkages between public parks, open spaces, residences and businesses." — Parks & Pathway Plan • "Allowing reasonable flexibility on final pathway routes, park locations, and plan implementation strategies." — Parks & Pathway Plan • Implementation strategy: "Parks Commission will review and prioritize pathway needs and recommend a schedule and funding framework to the City Council." — Parks & Pathway Plan The first step in the plan's development was a detailed update of the existing network to be sure that all existing segments are shown in place. From that point, staff outlined numerous proposed connections for the pathway system. The proposed connections are intended to close gaps in the system, provide needed connections to community assets (parks, schools, etc.), serve as recreational amenities, and support safety and functionality for the overall pathway system. These proposed connections were then prioritized for development timing based on the criteria shown in the supporting data. As with any plan, the map is intended to be used as a guide. Specific pathway segments may be added, moved up or out for construction timeline, or eliminated based on need at Planning Commission Agenda — 01/02/18 the time of development. However, staff believe it important to have a map which responds more directly to the goals above and provides a more detailed scope for improvement than the current broad-based maps in the Comprehensive Plan. The Parks Commission has reviewed the proposed plan at a preliminary level. It will go back to the Parks Commission for final review and adoption on January 25th. The City Council also reviewed this plan in a November workshop for preliminary comment. At this time, the document is presented for formal public comment and comment by the Planning Commission. If accepted by the Planning and Parks Commission, the plan will serve as a guide for the following efforts: o Annual capital improvement plan and budget o Feedback to developers for their project plans, o Apply Pop-Up/Demonstration Projects for Priority Projects as Applicable o Grant applications o Partnership development B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS 1. Motion to accept the Pathway Connections map as a guide for future pathway connections. 2. Motion to table action subject to submission of additional information and response to the comments of the Planning Commission. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff is seeking the formal comment of the public and Planning Commissioners at this time and acceptance of the map for future planning purposes. D. SUPPORTING DATA A.

The 2008 Comprehensive Plan laid out a generalized Parks element which introduced the need for park development and more specific planning. Among the several recommendations made in the Comprehensive Plan, one of the key elements was a notation made with regard to the Bertram Chain of Lakes park development. In that section, the Plan observes that the amenities programmed into the park will play a major role in attracting new development to Monticello. This sentiment was reflected in the survey results as well, with a large majority of respondents citing park development as an integral component of quality of life in the community. In the past, this policy was implemented through the City's efforts to provide parks in close proximity to all residential areas, as shown on the park coverage map in the previous chapter. The City's policies for park system proximity will transition under this plan from what was a heavy emphasis on neighborhood park and tot lot access to more reliance on fewer, but larger park facilities, with the focus of the system on the Bertram Chain of Lakes facility and a more extensive pathway system. The overall objective is not lost, however, only the plan for realizing the objective is changing. In the following material, a set of common objectives for parks and pathway development is laid out that is designed to integrate past park development with future park planning, acquisition, and growth. The fundamental goal from the Comprehensive Plan is reinforced with the policies in this document — providing amenities that promote the growth of high quality, move -up housing and high value jobs. Changing Park Proximity. The change from several smaller parks to fewer larger facilities reflects a number of factors, not the least of which is the extensive investment necessary to acquire and develop the Bertram Chain of Lakes. However, other prominent factors support this policy, including the following: • Park Variety. In larger facilities, the City is able to provide a broader range of amenities and elements, helping each park to appeal to a wider range of age groups and users. • Maintenance and Efficiencies. By focusing system growth on fewer, but larger, distinct facilities, the City's maintenance costs can be reduced by minimizing travel time and other similar efficiencies. • Acquisition Timing. Park acquisition can be phased in over time when future park locations are sited to accommodate dedication by several development interests, rather than relying on each development to provide its own separate park location. • Pathway Development. Fewer, larger parks creates a greater reliance on effective pathway connections, a design preference strongly supported by respondents to the parks survey. Monticello Parks and Pathways System Plan Page 3-1 Chapter 3 - Parks System Objectives As such, the City's park and pathway acquisition efforts will focus on supporting the development of a pathway system that provides access to primary pathway corridors less than one-half mile to most residences. Access to the primary system will be via a sub -system of sidewalks, some minor pathway development, and including some on -street pathway marking where low-volume roadways can safely support this design. As an implementation technique, the City may negotiate waivers from the sidewalk requirements (when appropriate) in exchange for pathway corridor dedications or other related improvements consistent with the parks system plans. As a final comment, although the Plan reorients the City toward more widely spaced, larger parks, proximity will still be a factor to consider as land develops. The provision of some smaller park locations may be considered appropriate where higher densities, limited access to pathway corridors, barriers to access, or other factors intervene. Thus, some small park development may still be seen as conditions warrant — the City will need to evaluate each growth area individually to ensure that park and pathway access continues to support high quality development. Seven Policies for Park Development. Reflecting these ideas, seven policies are identified as a part of this Plan that guide the City's park and recreation planning and development. These policies are intended to serve as guiding concepts for the more specific decisions the City makes as it determines park dedication requirements for development, allocates resources for park development, and evaluates its ongoing provision of park facilities and programming for the foreseeable future. It is important to remember that policies are not strategies or plans. Strategies and Plans must be tested against these policies to evaluate their effectiveness and consistency with the goals laid out in the Comprehensive Plan. As such, the comments in this section can sometimes feel overly general standing by themselves. Of course, they do not stand alone — these statements are merely the underpinnings for the more specific development choices made by City officials as the Parks and Pathways system is developed. It is also true that there are likely to be different strategies the City may follow to realize these policies. Each decision will depend on available resources, the options presenting themselves at the time, and the nature of the community. Therefore, while specific plans and strategies may change over time — and almost certainly will — the policies stated below are more likely to remain constant. If the City finds itself disagreeing with the policies, it is past time for a update to the Plan. Accompanying each general policy below are additional explanatory statements that add depth and dimension to the policies. Monticello Parks and Pathways System Plan Page 3-2 Chapter 3 - Parks System Objectives Monticello Parks and Pathways Plan Vision and Policy • Providing continuity and linkages between public parks, open spaces, residences, and businesses. o The City is expecting that the entirety of the community be interconnected through the park system and pathway plan. o The park and pathway system must continually be examined to ensure continuity as the community grows. o The pathways in the community serve as both transportation system and recreation system. ■ Pathways must connect to desired destinations. ■ Pathways must provide alternative routing options. ■ Pathways must provide safe design alternatives for pedestrians and bicyclists. o Parks must be accessible by all types of transportation. • Improving and increasing views to, access to, and utilization of the Mississippi River. o The City will seek more and easier connections to areas where views of the river are available to the public. o Direct access to river use will be sought wherever public spaces permit, including those in use now, as well as those (such as existing, undeveloped right of way) that have been overlooked. o Extended frontage along the river will be protected wherever it may be available, while respecting the rights of private landowners. • Providing for facilities that will serve the community in both short and long terms. o The City expects to prioritize recreational needs of the community in concert with all providers of recreation users, facilities, and programs, including other recreation providers, such as the school district and private facilities. o Coordination among recreation providers will be critical to maximize efficiency and level of service. • Allowing reasonable flexibility on final pathway routes, park locations, and plan implementation strategies. o Options change over time, and plan implementation will require regular monitoring as new options present themselves. o This plan is specific in terms of policies, but conceptual in terms of design — design should change to reflect new alternatives that achieve the same objective. o Consideration of alternatives should begin with the specific policy and the most important components. Monticello Parks and Pathways System Plan Page 3-3 Chapter 3 - Parks System Objectives • Providing a range of choices for system users. o The Plan is intended to serve all potential system users. o Advancement of healthier lifestyles implies the need to appeal to underserved users through convenience, innovation, or other methods that will increase use of the parks and pathways in Monticello. o The City will strive to provide superior recreational opportunities for all residents. • Utilizing the system to assist in preserving the natural and historic nature of the community. o In creating the system, priority will be on including areas that are found to be of significance to the community. o Preferences cite interest in natural open space experiences and improved pathway continuity, choice, and alternatives. o Expand the scope of the park and pathway system to include a wider variety of recreation experience. • Prioritizing the acquisition and development of Bertram Lakes Regional Park. o The unique opportunities provided by the Bertram Lakes facility will dominate Monticello's park and pathway planning for the foreseeable future. o Focus on Bertram Lakes for many of the community park facilities that might have otherwise been originally planned throughout the community. o Identify and supplement community park facilities with opportunities for neighborhood park experiences. o Ensure extensive pathway connections to both Bertram Lakes and the community parks to mitigate for the lack of true neighborhood park proximity. o Adapt community park facilities over time to ensure a variety of park and recreation experiences for the users of the facilities as they evolve over time due to access, growth, and demographic change. Monticello Parks and Pathways System Plan Page 3-4 Chapter 4 - Parks and Pathways System Plan Parks and Pathways System Plan The Parks and Pathways System Plan sets forth the plans and strategies that guide specific actions of the City in ongoing operation, new acquisition, development and planning. The system plan builds on the existing conditions and system objectives by identifying gaps between current reality and vision, then going on to establish a set of physical plans for the long-range organization and development of Monticello's recreation system. To this point, the following summary of findings, issues, and principles guide the creation of the Plan: ❖ The investment in the Bertram Chain of Lakes park facility will dominate the community's park acquisition and development for the foreseeable future. ❖ This investment drives Monticello to look toward the creation of fewer new park facilities during the planning period. ❖ The community has expressed a desire to continue parkland development but with a focus on specific aspects of recreation, including; ■ More emphasis on pathway development, including continuity, increased options and loops, and connections to parks, business areas, and schools. ■ Increased emphasis on water -oriented access and recreation, both natural and man-made, including Bertram Lakes, the Mississippi River, and other areas. ■ Expanded opportunities for natural open space experiences. ■ Support for Monticello Community Center facilities, expanding access, choice, and hours where possible. ❖ The new facilities that are to be considered will be concentrated in fewer, larger park locations, especially Bertram Chain of Lakes, and a few new locations that maximize opportunity for natural open space. ❖ Occasional smaller facilities may be developed when densities, barriers, or other conditions call for additional park locations to ensure adequate proximity and coverage. ❖ Focus on increased athletic field development, particularly youth baseball and soccer. ❖ Concentrate athletic fields in a few locations, particularly the opportunities at Bertram Lakes, to facilitate the attraction of tournament play, and to minimize common infrastructure such as maintenance needs, concession buildings, lights, and other similar elements. Monticello Parks and Pathways System Plan Page 4-1 Chapter 4 - Parks and Pathways System Plan ❖ Organize the pathway system to create a more predictable chain of community -wide pathway routes, in concert with neighborhood pedestrian and bicycle access to the community -wide system. ❖ Establish a primary system of pathways that minimize interruptions and conflicts, capitalizing on both existing infrastructure and opportunities for continuous routes. ❖ Follow up the primary system with secondary pathway loop connections, creating a system of inter -connected loops that maximize choice in trip length, route variety, and destination. Pathway loops should range between three and seven miles, depending on the web of local connections available. ❖ For local connections, encourage subdivision design that creates safe — as well as efficient - neighborhood sidewalk development, utilizing on -street options where appropriate in coordination for efficiency with other recreation providers. ❖ Make local pedestrian and bicycle transportation a fundamental part of subdivision design, rather than an after -thought once a development plan is finished.

Most pedestrian accidents and injuries take place at roadway intersections; thus, intersections must be properly designed to accommodate both vehicular and pedestrian movements. Many pedestrians in the downtown area must cross TH 25, which carries high volumes of vehicular traffic. While there have been no known examples of vehicle/pedestrian accidents in recent years along this stretch, it is an area that should be reviewed on an on- going basis. This is particularly true given the anticipated increased volumes of regional and local traffic along TH 25. CSAH 75 and CSAH 39 are other relatively high-volume roadways that should be monitored in terms of potential pedestrian safety issues. Should given intersections become problematic in terms of motorized/non-motorized conflicts, safety measures including the following will be assessed and implemented as -needed: • Installation of new traffic control signals • Revised timing of existing signals • Revised roadway geometry (layout and design of lanes) • Curb bump -outs • Traffic calming measures • Others City of Monticello Transportation Plan FINAL — January 2011 37 Another way to promote pedestrian safety, as well as access, is to provide a coordinated network of sidewalks in locations where there is sufficient demand. Figure 5.2 depicts the existing and planned network of sidewalks in Monticello. Bikeways The City is committed to providing a comprehensive and coordinated series of bikeways. Figure 5.2 depicts existing and proposed bikeways, including off-road paths on -road bike routes. Future development will include bikeways consistent with the existing and currently proposed network. The City will coordinate with Wright County regarding bike/pedestrian facility planning and development. Potential Motorized/Non-Motorized Conflict Points With the expansion and anticipated added usage of pedestrian/bicycle facilities, locations where non -motorized facilities cross roadways will need to be assessed and monitored regarding safety conditions. Key locations warranting evaluation are identified on Figure 5.2. 5.6 Transit General Transit Dial -a -ride transit services are provided in Monticello by River Rider, which is administered under a Joint Powers agreement between Wright County and Sherburne County. River Rider's service area is depicted on Figure 5.3. Any resident can use the service, which costs $1.25 per ride for pre -scheduled trips, and $2.00 per ride for same- day trips. River Rider also has two scheduled runs per day on TH 25 between Big Lake and Buffalo with a stop in Monticello. One of these runs is in the morning and the other is in the late afternoon. The fare for this city -to -city service is $4.00 per round trip. There currently is a park-and-ride lot off of School Boulevard west of TH 25. There is no scheduled transit service which stops at this location; it primarily serves as a consolidation point for carpoolers. It appears currently not to be heavily used. In the future, potential regional transit services could make good use of this lot. As development continues northwest of the Twin Cities it is anticipated that express transit service will be extended further out along the I-94 corridor. Under these circumstances, a good location for a new park-and-ride lot would be in the vicinity of the I-94/CSAH 18 interchange. This would be particularly true with a new River crossing in the vicinity of this interchange as discussed in Section 4.2.2 of this Plan. Northstar Corridor The Northstar line will provide commuter rail service paralleling TH 10, using existing Burlington Northern tracks, northwest of the Twin Cities. Service is anticipated to commence in late 2009. Initially, the line was to extend all the way from the Twin Cities to St. Cloud. However, the service was shortened considerably to meet Federal Transit City of Monticello Transportation Plan FINAL — January 2011 38 Planning Commission Agenda 01/02/18 3A.

Downtown Zoning Ordinance Work Group The work group supporting the revision of the zoning ordinance in support of the adopted Small Area Plan will meet at 7 AM on Thursday. January 11th. Flood Hazard Determination Mapping/Floodplain Update In the most recent conversations with the DNR, it was learned that the consultant for the floodplain mapping project is renegotiating their contract with FEMA to complete the balance of updates to flood hazard maps, including the maps for Wright County. They have not released the revised preliminary maps yet for Wright County, but hope do to so by April 2018. There will be another comment period for the revised maps at that time. The City will at some point after that review receive a Final Letter of Determination, which will notify the City when the maps become effective. DNR representatives have provided a template floodplain ordinance for the City to review in the coming months. The City will need to update its current floodplain ordinance and adopt a final ordinance prior to the time the new flood hazard maps become effective in order to maintain status in the flood insurance program. Staff is planning to bring a draft floodplain ordinance to the Planning Commission in February, 2018.
